  4. A soda maker that purchases its leading competitor is backward integrated.

  3. Considers how the firm compares with the competitors within the chosen strategic group.
  4. Predicts reaction patterns to events such as competitive attacks.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

An overall industry analysis, not a strategic group analysis, considers how the firm compares with the competitors within the chosen strategic group, e.g., on the basis of its scale of operations, the intensity of group rivalry, and the differences in the ability of the group members to implement their strategies.

  2. A strong position.

  4. A tenable position.

Answer(s): B

The retail petroleum industry consists of a few large firms that sell a standardized product.Which of the following best describes this industry?

  1. Monopoly.
  2. Oligopoly.
  3. Monopolistic competition.
  4. Pure competition.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

An oligopoly consists of a few large firms. If products are standardized, competition may be based solely on price. If products are partially differentiated, each firm may attempt to lead the industry regarding a given attribute, e.g., price, quality, service, or features. The retail petroleum industry is dominated by a small number of firms that control a vast majority of the market. Furthermore, it is an example of an industry that sells a standardized product, with competition based primarily on price.



A corporation produces uniforms that it sells and rents to businesses. The corporation recently acquired a textile mill that produces synthetic cloth. This acquisition is an example of:

  1. Horizontal integration Forward integration
  2. Horizontal integration Backward integration
  3. Vertical integration Forward integration
  4. Vertical integration Backward integration

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The degree of backward and forward vertical integration along the value chain varies with the industry. The corporation acquired one of its suppliers, which is on a different level of the value chain. Thus, the combination involved vertical integration. Moreover, the acquisition of a supplier is characteristic of backward integration.

q. 289 - the correct answer should be b not d, since the question asks for the most secure way to provide access to a s3 bucket (a single one), and by principle of the least privilege you should not be giving access to all buckets.
